Score cheap tacos

You’ll need to stay on top of the final score of each Colorado Rockies game to catch this deal. The day after a game in which the Rockies score seven runs or more, win or lose, Taco Bell sells four tacos for $2 between 4 p.m. and 6 p.m. You can also buy a medium drink for 50 cents. The deal continues throughout the baseball season at participating Colorado locations. Another reason to root, root, root for the home team. tacobell.com
